we see colorado and washington creating a very liberal open policy, california striking down their three-strikes law. that says let's not have nonviolent drug offenders go away to jail for a long time. judges and police say this is a losing battle. let's move towards treatment and decriminalization and treat it like alcohol rather than prohibition and criminalization. we have a mexican president saying, hey, let's look at a different way to treat this thing. let's talk about what he recently said. in favor of opening a new debate in the strategy in the way we fight drug traffickings. it's clear after several decades we have more drug consumption, drug use, drug trafficking. things are not working. a change in the drug policy would have a massive impact on the economy and on crime in both north america and throughout south america, and would lead the way and open the path toward a more humane immigration policy and people in america accepting them. >> i think you're right. it's been interesting. as things have moved politically in terms of the war on drugs, we've also, of course, seen after this

>> you know, it is a fairly new ban on conversion therapy in california. california is the only state as far as i know, the first state in our nation to ban reparative therapy or conversion therapy for people under the age of 18. so that will, again, lend support to the plaintiffs in this case that this therapy is just junk science, that it is not appropriate therapy for changing someone's sexual orientation. and so i suspect that we'll be hearing more not only about the california law banning it, but also just about the medical evidence supporting or not supporting this therapy. >> just wanted to talk about it, first of its kind lawsuit, see where it goes. sunny hostin on the case, thank you. >> thanks, brooke. >>> drugs, gangs, murder. one expert says that's what many americans think of when they think of mexico and the country's next leader, minutes away from sitting down with president obama at the white house. my next guest explains why americans have the wrong idea about mexico. questions? anyone have occasional constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating?
